Exploring Single-Molecule Structures on Insulating Layers
A PhD position is opened in the group „UHV-AFM“ in the Institute of Physics of
the University of Basel (http://monet.unibas.ch/gue/uhvafm/). This position is
available through a project which focuses on the study of local interactions by
Scanning Probe Methods financed by the Swiss National Science Foundation (SNF:
http://www.snf.ch/).

The successful candidate will explore single-molecules structures on insulating
films or substrates using non-contact or contact Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM)
in ultrahigh vacuum. The main focus will be the analysis of the interaction
forces between the cantilever and the underlaying surface or molecules while
manipulating them. For this purpose a homebuilt nc-AFM as well as an commercial
LT-Tuning Fork AFM are available. The results will be presented on national and
international conferences and workshops and should be seen as a part of the
development of next generation molecular electronics.
The candidate should have a diploma in Physics and a strong interest in
experimental work.
